The impression was that the channel was going to get a call from their handlers and they were trying to recover from a major screw up!
They were all worked up. If you place that incident in the long time contest of the "no one ever made any money investing ingold" and we will speak not of a bear market except to say that we are about to recover, and it makes the impression that they definitely did not want tosee Ron P get any face time.
Dr. Paul's opening remarks were pointed and right on the stupidity and incompetancy of the current actions and TOTALLY non PC!
I laguhed my butt off watching them squirm and squeal.
